Well have a live report in the next halfhour. Now to the oakland warehouse fire this morning. A shocking revelation about the building that turned into a fire trap and killed 36 people. Christin ayers reports building inspectors hadnt been inside in 30 years. Reporter when the ghost ship warehouse burned down, killing 36 partygoers, its possible the city of oakland had never once inspected it for fire hazards. State law mandates yearly fire inspections of commercial buildings but so far, the city cannot find any record of any fire inspection ever. Kpix 5 insider phil matier found out the Fire Prevention bureau is woefully understaffed. The pay records we found showed nine fire inspectors working the streets of oakland. You have to consider there are 12,000 commercial buildings that need to be inspected every year under the state mandate. So thats quite a load. Reporter a 2014 Alameda County grand jury report found that 4,000 commercial occupancies go uninspected due to competing Oakland Fire Department priorities. When asked whether fire inspectors had ever entered the ghost ship warehouse, mayor libby schaaf said this. I do not know the answer to that question and i dont need to know the answer to that question to tell you that we can improve our fire inspection and prevention process. Reporter her staff admitted they are still searching for any evidence that the building was ever inspected. The question arises, if after five days you still havent found em, either youre having a problem with your records or theyre not there. The atf has confirmed that there were no sprinklers or fire alarms in the building. The fallout following the deadly fire is now expanding to neighboring communities. The Alameda County fire marshal says her office cant keep up with all the calls for safety checks. We are responding to systems and in time, hopefully, the volume will die down. And if it doesnt, we will continue and we constantly look at the need for additional resources. Right now, Alameda County fire is in reaction mode with 14 people responding to dozens of extra complaints. But Officials Say the big challenge is staff recruitment. We have learned that oakland isnt the only bay area city where warehouses like the ghost ship are serving as makeshift homes. Kpix 5s Susie Steimle shows us the crackdown thats under way in San Francisco. Reporter in the wake of the ghost ship warehouse fire, what many artists feared is coming to fruition. We learned San Francisco is investigating 11 warehouses that are allegedly being converted into illegal living spaces. One on their radar is the 1660 jerrold avenue in the bayview. A punk rock musician and artist group known as cycle side lists this space as its permanent address. But according to the city, this place has not been inspected since 1986. Theres no plumbing and neighbors started complaining about People Living here illegally back in april. Theres folks in there. They are oakland people. Reporter chris coste still low has worked across the street from the warehouse for 30 years. He says there are People Living inside. I dont know how many are in there. You see them every now and then. And they are respectful and nice. Reporter another neighbor who didnt want us to show her face says she went inside for an art open house and saw a space similar to ghost ship. A lot of stuff in it. A lot of we talk about, um, have a lot of clutters, like, what happen in, um, in oakland. Reporter San Franciscos department of building inspection received five new complaints this week about warehouses being illegally converted into living spaces. There are 11 that they will be investigating in the next couple of days including this one on 3rd street. Some complaints specifically mention fire hazards, others underground nightclubs. Building inspectors say they sympathize with people who have nowhere to go, but they cant risk a repeat of the oakland tragedy. In San Francisco, Susie Steimle, kpix 5. Well have continuing coverage.

In addition to that, hidef Doppler Radar its live data showing we are picking up a little bit of activity in the form of some moderate rain cells, very, very light to moderate in nature from concord, clayton and walnut creek going toward antioch, bethel island, brentwood and Discovery Bay area. Meanwhile, we have had a lot of warmer air usher in with the passage of this front. And remember, we started the week off on a chilly note so we have fog. Half moon bay threemile visibility. 2. 5 in hayward. Hazy in concord, petaluma under two miles visibility and we have visibility deteriorating now in the santa rosa area with two miles.

The three left lanes are closed on the westbound side and one right lane is closed on the eastbound side. Both should be picked up by 5 a. M. Michelle . All right, roqui. Thank you. Many are shaken up after a powerful earthquake hit off the coast of humboldt county. The magnitude 6. 5 quake hit around 7 00 yesterday morning about 100 miles west of ferndale. It hit in a seismically active area where several smaller tremors were recorded in just the last few weeks. The quake was felt as far north as Southern Oregon as well as in sacramento and here in the bay area. It didnt cause any major damage but the quake did open large cracks in the pavement of one apartment complex. A seismologist says the quake will give scientists a lot to study because of where it hit, a region where three tectonic plates converge and the San Andreas Fault ends. The area is all under water. Its very difficult for scientists to really look at it firsthand and so much of the information thats known about this area geophysically speak something from seismic records. Since there was a large earthquake, there should be a lot of good data. The earthquake didnt trigger a tsunami because it was a strike slip, or sideto side motion quake. After seeing a spike in mushroom poisonings, watch what you pick in the wild. Some type of poisonous mushrooms look edible and only people with extensive training should gather them.

Reporter san jose highways are literally getting really trashy and city leaders are fed up. We have five freeways that go through the city. The entire length of all these freeways, every entrance and exit is covered with litter. And were not seeing any resolution from the state of california. Reporter its why Council Member oliverio is taking a drastic step to hold caltrans responsible. I would propose that we declare the properties as a nuisance and fine them because if they cant keep up their minimum commitment of cleaning them, then they should pay a fine. Why should san jose residents suffer . Reporter he has already written a memo to discuss whether the city can fine or bill a state agency for not maintaining or cleaning property. Caltrans has says it does what it can to clean up but garbage pops up as soon as its picked up. The san jose mayor has also pushed the agency to make clean up of 10 freeway hot spots a priority. The memo goes before the city council for discussion at its meeting tuesday. The City Attorney will look into potential Legal Options the city of san jose can take. In san jose, betty yu, kpix 5. [ music ] time now 4 42. A new conflict of interest for president elect donald trump as he decides to stay on as executive producer of his reality show. ,,,,,,,p ppresident eleb a new conflict of interest for president elect donald trump. Were learning he will still be part of his reality show, even after taking the oath of office. As rachel kim explains, some say the move could raise ethics concerns. Reporter its a move thats raising eyebrows and concerns. President elect donald trump will remain an executive producer on the reality show that made him a household name while he serves as the nations commanderinchief. I cant think of a situation where a sitting president has continued to have a, um, a, a, credit, on an ongoing tv series. Reporter ted johnson Senior Editor of variety said mgm confirmed to him that he will keep his executive producer credit on Celebrity Apprentice returning on january 2. We dont know how much he will be getting paid per episode. I think theres estimates in the low 6 figures at least. And the money will come as i understand it from mgm, not from nbc. Reporter many say this is an unusual move since nbc cut ties with trump not long after his campaign started when he made comments about criminal mexican immigrants. Then there were crude comments that surfaced from access hollywood tapes. A Political Science professor at Loyola Marymount University Says theres a conflict of interest. Theres a conflict in terms of a News Organization like nbc having to deal with him. He will say that they are not dealing with him directly, that they are dealing with the Production Company mgm that he doesnt have complete control over that. Nbc knows who will be making money, the president knows what company is going to be paying him. Again, a major conflict, not necessary, why he is doing this, it just it its hard to imagine. Reporter he believes this could be a slippery slope when it comes to other interests trump has. He says our president elect should remember that the peoples business comes first. Inappropriate. Every past president has given up all of other activities. Every moment, every day, is so important to able to Pay Attention to every detail as president. It doesnt leave room for that type of activity. Reporter rachel kim, kpix 5. There are no laws to prevent president elect donald trump to run the country and his. The president elect is planning a major News Conference in new york city next week to discuss his separation from his businesses. The town of salem New Hampshire is hoping a thief will have a change of heart after the baby jesus statue was stolen from the towns nativity scene missing since monday night.
